Malte Manual-Winding – The Legendary Tonneau Heritage of 1912
The tonneau case shape of the Malte collection is not merely an architectural choice; it is a design legend, first introduced by the Maison in 1912. The graceful curves of the 18K Pink Gold case are hand-polished to perfection, offering a warm and assertive presence on the wrist. This silhouette defines the collection’s identity, blending the boldness of the case shape with the softness of rounded edges, making it a masterclass in elegant, heritage-inspired design.
Minimalist Dial and Horological Purity
The silver-toned dial serves as a canvas of understated luxury, prioritizing clarity and balance. Applied hour markers and gold hands provide a subtle, luminous contrast against the silver backdrop, while the small seconds sub-dial at 6 o’clock adds a classic mechanical cadence. With a slim profile of 9.25 mm, the watch slides effortlessly under a shirt cuff, making it the quintessence of a formal dress watch that demands attention through refinement rather than ostentation.
Manually-Wound Movement – The Soul of Precision
Powering the Malte Manual-Winding is a mechanical movement that requires the engagement of the wearer, a tactile experience that connects the collector to the watch’s heart. Visible through the transparent sapphire caseback, the movement showcases the meticulous hand-finishing that defines the Hallmark of Geneva (Poinçon de Genève). Every bridge and wheel is treated with the utmost respect for horological tradition, ensuring this timepiece is not just a tool for measurement, but a legacy instrument of precision and art.
